Question About Lift Costs

If I end up needing a lift how much will it change the cost? What different kinds of lifts are there? Do they change significantly in cost? I read what you posted to another of the girls about the nipple being close to the fold of your breast. That is the part where your breast curves under right? If so mine is kinda close and I have been concerned about needing a lift.

I have my first consultation with a surgeon in two weeks and am just looking for as much info as possible before I go in.

Hope you can help! Thanx!

I cannot answer the cost question except to say a lift is more expensive. You will need a lift if you don't like the way your breasts look. There are two patients who come in to see a PS, those who like the way their breasts look and want them bigger and those who don't like the way they look and want them bigger. The second group needs a lift. A lift really means lifting the nipple areolar complex higher on the breast mound or the front surface of your breast.

Hmm I like the way my breasts look but they do sag a bit that is my concern about needing the lift. If I go bigger and they are still low I think it will not look right and I don't want to have the lift at a later time. In the long run I think it would be better to have it all done at once and be happy with my results.

Thanx I appreciate the info.
